The ADA4856-3 (triple) is a fixed gain of +2, single-supply, railto-rail output video amplifier. It provides excellent video
performance with 225 MHz, −3 dB bandwidth, 800 V/μs slew rate,
and 74 MHz, 0.1 dB flatness into a 150 Ω load. It has a wide
input common-mode voltage range that extends 0.2 V below
ground and 1 V below the positive rail. In addition, the output
voltage swings within 200 mV of either supply, making this video
amplifier easy to use on single-supply voltages as low as 3.3 V.

The ADA4856-3 is available in a 16-lead LFCSP and is designed
to work over the extended industrial temperature range of
−40°C to +105°C.

Specification is for device in free air.
Stresses above those listed under Absolute Maximum Ratings
may cause permanent damage to the device. This is a stress
rating only; functional operation of the device at these or any
other conditions above those indicated in the operational
section of this specification is not implied. Exposure to absolute
maximum rating conditions for extended periods may affect
device reliability.
The maximum power that can be safely dissipated by the
ADA4856-3 is limited by the associated rise in junction
temperature. The maximum safe junction temperature for
plastic encapsulated devices is determined by the glass transition
temperature of the plastic, approximately 150°C. Temporarily
exceeding this limit may cause a shift in parametric performance
due to a change in the stresses exerted on the die by the package.
Exceeding a junction temperature of 175°C for an extended
period can result in device failure.
To ensure proper operation, it is necessary to observe the
maximum power derating curves.

ADA4856-3
Data Sheet
THEORY OF OPERATION
Besides a novel input stage, the ADA4856-3 employs the Analog
Devices, Inc., patented rail-to-rail output stage. This output
stage makes an efficient use of the power supplies, allowing the
op amp to drive up to three video loads to within 300 mV from
both rails. In addition, this output stage provides the amplifier
with very fast overdrive characteristics, an important property
in video applications.
The ADA4856-3 comes in a 16-lead LFCSP that has an exposed
thermal pad for lower operating temperature. This pad is connected
internally to the negative rail. To avoid printed circuit board (PCB)
layout problems, the ADA4856-3 features a new pinout flow that
is optimized for video applications. As shown in Figure 4, the
feedback and gain resistors are on-chip, which minimizes the
number of components needed and improves the design layout.
The ADA4856-3 is fabricated in Analog Devices dielectrically
isolated eXtra Fast Complementary Bipolar 3 (XFCB3) process,
which results in the outstanding speed and dynamic range
displayed by the amplifier.

The ADA4856-3 is a voltage feedback op amp that employs a
new input stage that achieves a high slew rate while maintaining
a wide common-mode input range. The input common-mode
range of the ADA4856-3 extends from 200 mV below the negative
rail to about 1 V from the positive rail. This feature makes the
ADA4856-3 ideal for low voltage single-supply applications. In
addition, this new input stage does not sacrifice noise performance
for slew rate. At 14 nV/√Hz, the ADA4856-3 is one of the
lowest noise rail-to-rail output video amplifiers in the market.

USING THE ADA4856-3 IN GAINS EQUAL TO +1, −1
10µF
The ADA4856-3 was designed to offer outstanding video
performance, simplify applications, and minimize board area.
0.1µF
The ADA4856-3 is a triple amplifier with on-chip feedback
and gain set resistors. The gain is fixed internally at G = +2. The
inclusion of the on-chip resistors not only simplifies the design of
the application but also eliminates six surface-mount resistors,
saving valuable board space and lowering assembly costs.
Whereas the ADA4856-3 has a fixed gain of G = +2, it can be
used in other gain configurations, such as G = −1 and G = +1.

Figure 35. Unity Gain of Option 2
There are two options for obtaining unity gain (G = +1). The
first is shown in Figure 34. In this configuration, the –IN input
pin is tied to the output (feedback is now provided with the two
internal 402 Ω resistors in parallel), and the input is applied to
the noninverting input. The noise gain for this configuration is 1.
Inverting Unity-Gain Operation
In this configuration, the noninverting input is tied to ground
and the input signal is applied to the inverting input. The noise
gain for this configuration is +2, see Figure 36.

Another option exists for running the ADA4856-3 as a unitygain amplifier. In this configuration, the noise gain is +2, see
Figure 35. The frequency response and transient response for
this configuration closely match the gain of +2 plots because the
noise gains are equal. This method does have twice the noise gain
of Option 1; however, in applications that do not require low noise,
Option 2 offers less peaking and ringing. By tying the inputs
together, the net gain of the amplifier becomes 1. Equation 1 shows
the transfer characteristic for the schematic shown in Figure 35.

USING THE ADA4856-3 IN GAINS EQUAL TO +3,
+4, AND +5
Depending on certain applications, it might be useful to have a
fixed gain amplifier that can provide various gains. The advantage
of having a fixed gain amplifier is the ease of layout, the reduced
number of components needed, and the matching of the gain
and feedback resistors.
As shown in Figure 41, the large signal frequency response
for G = +4 is also flat out to 65 MHz, and it has a bandwidth
of 180 MHz.
Gain of +5 Configuration
The gain of +5 is very similar to the G = +3 configuration but with
U2 set to a gain of −1, which ends up being added to twice the
output of U1 to generate VOUT with G = +5.

Figure 38 shows the ADA4856-3 used as an amplifier with a
fixed gain of +3. No external resistors are required, just a simple
trace connecting certain inputs and outputs. Connect VIN to U1,
which is set to a gain of +2, and U2, which is set to unity. U3 then
takes the output of U1 and gains it up by +2 and subtracts the
output of U2 to produce VOUT. As shown in Figure 41, the large
signal frequency response for G = +3 is flat out to 65 MHz, with a

SINGLE-SUPPLY OPERATION
POWER DOWN
The ADA4856-3 can operate in single-supply applications.
Figure 47 shows the schematic for a single 5 V supply video
driver. Resistors R2 and R4 establish the midsupply reference.
Capacitor C2 is the bypass capacitor for the midsupply reference.
Capacitor C1 is the input coupling capacitor, and C6 is the output
coupling capacitor. Capacitor C5 prevents constant current from
being drawn through the internal gain set resistor. Resistor R3
sets the ac input impedance of the circuit.
The ADA4856-3 is equipped with a PD (power-down) pin for
all three amplifiers. This allows the user to reduce the quiescent
supply current when an amplifier is inactive. The power-down
threshold levels are derived from the voltage applied to the +VS
pin. When used in single-supply applications, this is especially
useful with conventional logic levels. The amplifier is enabled
when the voltage applied to the PD pin is greater than +VS − 1.25 V.
In a 5 V single-supply application, the typical threshold voltage
is +3.75 V, and in a 3.3 V dual-supply application, the typical
threshold voltage is +2 V. The amplifier is also enabled when the
PD pin is left floating (not connected). However, the amplifier is
powered down when the voltage on the PD pin is lower than 2.5 V
from +VS. If the PD pin is not used, it is best to connect it to the
positive supply

Applications”, Analog Dialogue, Volume 35, Number 2, MarchMay, 2001, at www.analog.com.

In addition, the ADA4856-3 can be configured in dc-coupled,
single-supply operation. The common-mode input voltage
can go about 200 mV below ground, which makes it a true singlesupply part. However, in video applications, the black level is set
at 0 V, which means that the output of the amplifier must go to
the ground level as well. This part has a rail-to-rail output stage;
it can go as close as 100 mV from either rail. Figure 48 shows
the schematic for adding 50 mV dc offset to the input signal so
that the output is not clipped while still properly terminating
the input with 75 Ω.

PD Pin
As is the case with all high speed applications, careful attention
to printed circuit board (PCB) layout details prevents associated
board parasitics from becoming problematic. Proper RF design
technique is mandatory. The PCB should have a ground plane
covering all unused portions of the component side of the
board to provide a low impedance return path. Removing the
ground plane on all layers from the area near the input and output
pins reduces stray capacitance. Locate termination resistors and
loads as close as possible to their respective inputs and outputs.
Keep input and output traces as far apart as possible to minimize
coupling (crosstalk) though the board. Adherence to microstrip
or stripline design techniques for long signal traces (greater than
about 1 inch) is recommended.
POWER SUPPLY BYPASSING
Careful attention must be paid to bypassing the power supply pins
of the ADA4856-3. Use high quality capacitors with low equivalent
series resistance (ESR), such as multilayer ceramic capacitors
(MLCCs), to minimize supply voltage ripple and power dissipation.
A large, usually tantalum, 10 μF to 47 μF capacitor located in
proximity to the ADA4856-3 is required to provide good
decoupling for lower frequency signals. In addition, locate 0.1 μF
MLCC decoupling capacitors as close to each of the power supply
pins as is physically possible, no more than 1/8 inch away. The
ground returns should terminate immediately into the ground
plane. Locating the bypass capacitor return close to the load
return minimizes ground loops and improves performance.
